17. Great Vampire Stories - Misc

Well, the title of Great Vampire Stories was misleading, with only a handful of the stories being about vampires. When you look inside you see it was originally published as Vampires and Other Classis Horrors

Ah well

The best story, amusingly, turned out not to be a horror story at all. If you get the chance to read The Spectral Bridegroom by Washington Irving give it a read. It made me laugh at the end, but in an affectionate way

Next on the list is a book that wasn't supposed to be next but it's all I have here. My Take by Gary Barlow. Gonna be weird reading this after how much I obsessed over Take That when I was a teenager.

Sorted

Got myself a new train ticket and booked myself into a hotel near the airport

I feel better now

Shopping

Had a most productive days shopping today. Went to Gap as I wanted to pair of trousers. First of all the ones I tried on were too long (I hate being a short-ass) so I opted for a pair of cropped leg trousers. The first pair I tried on were too small (my thighs are huge *sigh*) but the nice shop assistant found me a slightly different pair which were the right size and cost £10 less. Score!

Also bought a load of boring stuff like shampoo. LOL

I'm pretty much ready to go now. Couple of little bits and pieces which I need to get tomorrow and that's it.

Also went to see Shrek the Third which I really enjoyed.

Need to see Fantastic Four 2 now
